Personal Centred Planning

Ocean Choices is committed to providing person-centred support for adults with a learning disability and we seek to develop opportunities that enable you to lead a fulfilling and active life. Working with you we aim to create and provide enjoyable and stimulating opportunities every day.

Ocean Choices has a reputation in South Tyneside for providing high-quality, innovative services designed around the needs of individuals. We recognise that each person as unique and valued and our work demonstrates that every person is treated with respect and dignity.

Every person who comes to Ocean Choices using Direct Payments will have a personal support plan to enable our staff to provide a wholly safe and secure environment. We want everyone also be helped to develop their own Person Centred Plan. We achieve this by working closely with each person and their families to help them to make choices about how they live their lives and how to manage the risks that come with daily living. A personal Centred Plan will help us all to realise and work towards the hopes, dreams and aspirations of each person at Ocean Choices.

Being a dynamic learning disability provider organisation, Ocean Arts has fully embraced the personalisation agenda and our staff each has their own One Page Profile. One Page Profiles are developed to help both clients and staff get to know each other better and also help make sure the right person is supported by the right member of staff.
